Forefront UAG in 10 minutes

After playing around with Forefront UAG recently for work I thought it would be a good idea to create a quick 10 minute overview / training about how to install the product and setup a very basic publishing portal.

The video actually lasts 17 minutes despite its name as there was quite a lot of information to cram in but I figured no-one would mind! Another thing is that most of the time when I say “portal” I actually mean “trunk” which is the correct UAG term for a collection of published applications (unfortunately you cant “find and replace” in a voice recording that I know of!).

Items covered in the video are:

Topology

Installation

Basic HTTPS trunk

HTTP redirect trunk

If you have watched any of my series of videos please leave me some feedback below, good or bad it doesn’t matter. Just so I know I've not been wasting my spare time! Thank you & enjoy. Also if there is anything in particular you would like covering in more detail drop me a note and I'll see what I can do. Next time I was looking to do a " Forefront TMG in 10 minutes" video.

Excellent overview of some of the features of UAG 🙂 I don’t seem to get the time to play with these things myself, so to have a quick rundown of key features presented in this easy to digest video is very useful! Keep up the good work!

Cool video, one thing though (through my own testing) is that you have to specify a FQDN for your trunk name otherwise you cant publish things like Exchange or Sharepoint. But you specified it on the video 🙂

Good Job HERE. Your service will save many administrators lots of time. I’m always reading and push or time. When I can review a video presentation, it helps to save configuration time and experimenting.

Hey,
just want to say thank you for the great overview about UAG,
i hope you will do another one and more advanced one.

Good video, with 1 question, when setting up the trunk in step 3, you selected to use local Active Directory, however when setting the base DN, the option changed by magic to define domain controllers. Did you need to change to this to set the base DN?

Very useful. Enabled me to see and understand it in less than 15 minutes. Thank you!

Very cool, trying to come up to speed for different ways to publish portions of SharePoint 2010 QUICKLY. This is enough to at least get me started to see if it will work in time for project rollout…. in a couple of weeks!
